Soft top

A minimum height clearance of 6.5 ft (2 m) is required
to lower or raise the soft top.
Do not lower a frozen soft top until thawed and dry.
Doing so may result in damage not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
To prevent mildew, the soft top must be dry before
lowering it into the storage compartment.
The soft top should not be lowered or raised at outside
temperatures below +5°F (-15°C), since the material
becomes less pliable with lower temperatures.
The lowering or raising procedure is immediately
interrupted by releasing the soft top switch.
